"Brother, what are you writing?" Zheng Xuanchen asked curiously, as he popped up from behind Zheng Xuanqi.

After being reborn, Zheng Xuanqi attaches more importance to family affection! When a person dies suddenly, who will be sad for him, shed tears for him, and mourn for him? Some people will answer that they are spouses, some will answer that they are parents, some will answer that they are children, and some people will answer that they are friends, parishioners, or colleagues! However, among all the grief-stricken people, 99.9 out of 100 people will definitely have the same surname, and they will all have a common name "relatives------ and only those who are related by blood can truly experience that kind of grief!

Zheng Xuanqi loves this younger brother even more and cherishes this brotherly and family affection even more.

On a banyan tree by the pond

I know that I am screaming about summer

On a swing by the playground

Only butterflies stop on it

The teacher chalked on the blackboard

Still desperately chirping and writing

Waiting for the end of class

Waiting for the end of school

Waiting for the game of childhood

·············

Day after day, year after year

Looking forward to growing up in childhood

How short childhood is! After growing up, how many of us are eager to relive our childhood again, but it is out of reach, but fate favors Zheng Xuanqi.

Zheng Xuanqi put down the pen in his hand, turned his head, and stared at his younger brother quietly, looking at Zheng Xuanchen's dark and bright eyes, full of curiosity, and for a moment there was a sense of reunion after a long absence! Recalling that in the past few days, he left him alone in the Xinhua Bookstore to read books, and went to the securities business hall to operate, and suddenly felt guilty and said: "Xiaochen, these days, my brother has not accompanied you in the Xinhua Bookstore, and let you be there alone, you won't be angry with your brother, right?"

"Ahh Zheng Xuanchen frowned and said, "However, at this time, Sister Han Xue will come over to take care of me, talk to me, and secretly bring me something to eat." As he spoke, he swirled his tongue around his lips, signaling the deliciousness of the thing, and then said, "At this time, I am not afraid, but I am still not used to you not being next to me!"

Zheng Xuanqi touched his younger brother's head and said apologetically: "My brother has encountered some things during this time, and my brother needs to deal with them personally." Well, the last time those two uncles came to the house to look for my brother, do you remember that Uncle Wang?" Zheng Xuanqi decided to make up a white lie, saying, "Didn't my brother ask Uncle Wang to help him take those novels written by my brother to the publisher for publication? Uncle Wang said, 'There are some details of publishing these novels that need to be discussed by my brother in person', so during this time, my brother didn't accompany you much. ”

"Oh, I know, now that I'm grown up, boys have to learn to be independent and strong. During this time, I learned a lot of knowledge that I couldn't learn in textbooks in Xinhua Bookstore, and I am also studying hard for the materials you helped me sort out, and I want to be like my brother, read a lot of books, accumulate knowledge, and get the first place in the exam!" Zheng Xuanchen had a serious expression.

"Who taught this?"

"What is taught in the book, and Sister Han Xue also said it. ”

Zheng Xuanqi thought of the intern girl in Xinhua Bookstore, or she really had to thank her. No matter what the purpose is, the favor of taking care of my brother must be repaid, and then he said: "Then have you said thank you to that sister Han Xue! Or wait a few days, my brother's affairs are busy, let's thank her together and invite her to a big meal, or? Why don't you ask Sister Han Xue what she likes the most?"

"Well, that's great, but Sister Han Xue often asks me about you, and I also tell her a lot, such as: my brother got the first place in the exam, caught a thief on the bus, and wrote a lot of novels. But it's strange, she seems to have known that Zheng Xuanqi took the first place in the exam, but she wasn't sure that person was your brother. Hehe, I'll tell her on the spot! Sister Han Xue was very surprised. Zheng Xuanchen recalled that when he told Han Xue in the bookstore that his brother was that Zheng Xuanqi, Han Xue's surprised expression was very strange, and he said with a smile, "I also told him that after catching a thief on the bus, an uncle Wang came to our house to thank my brother for his righteousness and bravery! Seeing righteousness and courage is also an idiom taught to me by Han Xue's sister! That afternoon, my sister also invited me to eat a few famous snacks near the city------ and then I told her about my brother's novel." ”

"What else?"

"And I also told my brother about the materials that my brother gave me, I said, 'The materials I am studying now are all sorted out by my brother, and the teachers in our elementary school are not as good as my brother'! It's just that my brother is not used to teaching me the learning method, but ----------" Zheng Xuanchen suddenly realized that something was wrong, his voice gradually became softer, and his expression was not as natural as before.

Zheng Xuanqi looked at his younger brother's smile and suddenly froze, stopped talking, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Sister Han Xue wants to see my materials? I didn't say yes! Brother, I didn't mean to say it. Zheng Xuanchen said with some uneasiness, "I said that I have to go home and ask my brother if he agrees." Although Zheng Xuanqi is young, he is not stupid, he knows the importance of these materials, and he also remembers his brother's repeated advice------ not to leak these materials, but out of the child's heart, he accidentally said it out of his mouth, so that the speaker was unintentional and the listener was intentional.

Zheng Xuanqi looked at the younger brother in front of him, thought about it seriously, and said kindly: "It's okay, if you say that you leak your mouth, you will say that you leak your mouth, you are not used to learning methods, take your time, don't be in a hurry, no matter how good the learning methods and skills are, they can only be regarded as the best if you combine them! You can't take out the real questions that are easy to make mistakes (actually the exam questions of future years) and so on, and if Sister Han Xue wants to see her brother's study materials, you have to say that you must have your brother's consent. ”

"Oh, I know!" Hearing that his brother did not blame, but was just as kind, Zheng Xuanchen let go of his uneasy heart.

As for the series of numbers that came in and saw his brother on the desk, Zheng Xuanchen had long forgotten to ask. Only a few years later, when Zheng Xuanchen, who went to Tsinghua University, came to the University of Hong Kong for exchange, he heard his classmates discuss the collapse of the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index Index in the 1997 Southeast Asian financial crisis, and on August 7, 16673, these numbers, he suddenly felt familiar------ vaguely remembered that there had been 1997.8.7 on his brother's desk------ The record of 16673.30 is reminiscent of the time when my brother went to Hong Kong alone, and when he came back, ------his expression was shocked------ that night was definitely on July 1, before Hong Kong's return to the motherland.
